## Description

**Talk About Laminitis (TAL)** is an essential initiative dedicated to increasing awareness and management of laminitis in horses and ponies. Since its establishment in 2012, TAL has spearheaded efforts to educate horse owners and veterinarians about the crucial link between laminitis and hormonal diseases, particularly Equine Cushing’s Disease (PPID) and Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS). 

TAL emphasizes the importance of early detection and holistic management of laminitis, which is primarily an inflammatory condition affecting horse hooves, leading to severe lameness. The organization's research highlights that 90% of laminitis cases stem from hormonal imbalances, prompting the need for routine hormonal testing in affected horses. 

In addition to resources for horse owners, TAL provides veterinarians with vouchers for complimentary blood tests for diagnosing PPID. Their commitment extends to facilitating educational platforms, ensuring that horse owners are equipped with the knowledge to recognize early signs of laminitis and take proactive measures for their equine companions.
